Writing Stories into Song by Louise Coombe - a workshop and concert

 —  —

Meekins Library , Williamsburg, MA

FREE TO THE PUBLIC. With the help of a grant from the Williamsburg Cultural Council, I'll be presenting a workshop and short concert at the Meekins Library about writing stories into songs. You can participate in the writing exercises and discussion or just come and hang to listen. I love stories and I love the challenge of putting a story into song form. This will be a casual, fun 90 minutes. Bring a notebook if participating. It'll be lyrically focused (no need to bring instruments to this one).

Happy Fall ~  

 

Happy Fall, y'all!
Hey everyone ~

Hope the leaves are still looking gorgeous wherever you are and you are enjoying the cooler temps!

I just took a last minute trip to Washington DC to wish the great songwriter and legend, Tom Paxton, a very happy 88th birthday last weekend at The Birchmere and it was an absolute joy. I met Tom years ago at Swannanoa Gathering through my partner Cliff Eberhardt. We've been writing songs together over the Zoom every Friday for three years now and we've written dozens of …Read more

Happy Fall Y'all 

"Gratitude is when memory is stored in the heart and not in the mind." - Lionel Hampton

Hey everyone ~ Happy Fall and Thanksgiving!

I'm grateful for lots of things this year like the health and love of my family, my Martin OOO-21 guitar, my Honda CRV, writing songs with Tom Paxton, and YOU, dear audience members, who continue to astonish me with your kindness. Thank you.

Hey! How was your summer? 

Mine was pretty cool - just too short! I played some fun shows - house concerts, Huntington Folk Fest, Daryl's House, Becket Arts Center....I LOVE playing outside (when the weather is good). :) Went to Tanglewood to see James Taylor and Elvis Costello. Put together a new fancy grill (whew) and have grilled a TON since. I did a BUNCH of studio singing work for other people - like Fred Goodhue and Mark Stepakoff - both great projects and fun songs to sing on.

Hope you are doing well and had some good times in…Read more

Studio found! 

Hey guys,

Plans are coming together to make a new album. We found a very cool studio here in town and I'm getting the songs together too - new stuff! I will be launching a fundraising campaign soon too to help with costs. Big love to you all ~ xo

Vocal Tips! 

Hey guys,

I had THE best time teaching this spring at the Folk Project Summer Getaway weekend. One of the classes I taught was vocal techniques and tips. I thought I'd post my notes here in case any of you singers out there could use what I've learned over the years! And if you're interested in private lessons, let's talk!

Vocal Techniques and Tips

By Louise Mosrie

  1. Authenticity – literally the #1 thing to be concerned with while singing. Sing with your natural voice…meaning don’t imitate other singers’…

New stuff 

Hey guys!

Sorry for the long time between news blasts. I swear I'm going to be better about keeping this site up to date from now on!

As many of you know, I've moved to New England and I love it. It's been a real adventure dealing with new digs, new neighbors and new gigs! Everyone here in the beautiful hills of Western Massachusetts has been very kinds and welcoming. So grateful. They cock their heads to the side when they hear my southern accent, but it's all good.

This Spring I've been involved in an…
